Or French. Or Japanese. Or Swedish...or...uh. Ok, I'm done.

Swedish? Why's that? Just curious really (yeahyeahyeah, I speak Swedish).

I truthfully have no idea.

Hehe, okay, fair enough

[shamelesslanguagepromotion]How about Finnish? Anyone?[/shamelesslanguagepromotion]

I don't speak English fluently, so that'd be cool.
Other than that, I don't know. Maybe some really uncommon language.

To be honest, I would like to learn Sign Language the most. I see it the most useful I'll ever need apart from English. I'd also like to learn Braille, so I can pretend to be blind.

If you mean Spoken Language, probably Japanese. The culture really interests me (Plus I want to play games earlier >P)

My fingertips must not be very sensitive or something, because all the times I've tried to feel Braille letters, I haven't been able to differentiate between one and the next. They all just feel the same to me.

Japenese. Then I could import videogames and actaully understand what they mean!

I've done that as well. I think I just wasn't concentrating well enough, though.

Oooh, Elvish would be so awesome to learn

Forest_Majesty · #41 Post by **Forest_Majesty** » Tue Jul 26, 2005 2:06 pm

Oooh way too many

. I'd like to learn (and become fluent) in French, Spanish, Elvish, Gaelic, and Japanese.

Gaelic. Gaelic is so beautiful.

Spanish/Latin.

Double reasons: There are a lot of Spanish people in the US, and I could buy Jaci Velasquez's spanish CDs. :O

Languages without their quirks and backgrounds are nothing. That's why Elvish is more popular than Esperanto - I say Elvish and not Klingon because Tolkien was a huge anti-Esperanto firebrand.

But yeah, Japanese.

Definetly Japanese... that way I wouldn't have to worry if an anime I wanted to see was dubbed or had subtitles

heh
